Get stuffed!

Well, this pattypan squash will get stuffed for dinner! Today's CSA haul was very nice: lots of squash, heirloom tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, heirloom fingerling potatoes, kale, leeks, and garlic. No lettuce, though - it bolted in last week's heat, so we won't have more for a couple of weeks.

The garlic is German Red, which I have discovered keeps really well throughout the winter in a paper bag on the counter. (It probably helps that I only heat my house to about the temperature of a root cellar...) So I'm going to buy lots of garlic and potatoes from the farmer next month when the temp and humidity levels are lower in the house.

More veggies are on the way. Some friends are on vacation this week, and I'll be picking up their CSA share from a different farm. It will be interesting to see what's growing over there.
